S.A.D.

Aimless explorer
in a well-lit expanse of plenty and infinite choices, 
stalking the elusive source of health.  
Greasy and sweet, 
vegan and meat, 
insulin, 
casein, 
may be ally or foe.
But, which, we'll never know. 
Science is in thrall and
designs the truth to order, 
bought by interests in conflict, 
one with another, 
all with the world,
commodities to subsidize, 
believing what they must.
They broadcast from all directions
calling out to the
aimless explorer
in a well-lit expanse of plenty and infinite choices, 
miles away from the
musty convenience stores where
shoppers who take what they can get, 
have bigger problems.
